The establishing shot of Ursula's apartment building is stock footage of a New York City apartment building from the website Framepool.

The same footage was used in the 2013 black comedy superhero film Kick-Ass 2.

(the site doesn't exist anymore, I guess)

You can see some fan photos:

Initially, the show producers had planned on filming the scenes the ice cave scenes from the episode "White Out" in a meat locker, in order to capture the characters' breath on screen. The idea was scrapped when they realized that viewers wouldn't see Elsa's breath since she is not affected by the cold. Instead, the scene was shot inside a studio, where the temperature was 110 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius). While Jennifer Morrison pretended to be freezing and shivering, she was actually sweating through her T-shirt.

To enter the psychiatric ward (in the episode "A Tale of Two Sisters"), Regina types the password 815. In the Season Five premiere "The Dark Swan", Henry reveals that Regina uses his birthday as the password, meaning he was born on August 15, 2001. 

8 and 15 are also two numbers from the series LOST.
